Invoke the world clock 2. Make sure there are at least two timezones, adding one if needed 3. Select "Set..." for a currently non-selected timezone in the "Locations" list. 4. Watch a dialog "To change time or date settings, you need to authenticate" and "Password for root" pop up. This is really not usable for non-expert users, who have their machines configured and maintained the geeks among us, but want to roam (to other timezones, other wireless networks, the printers there -- think going on vacation abroad). Can we please make the default more non-geek friendly? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
